Many (53 SCIENCE) believe that it was, and state that there is no (54 POSSIBLE) at all that people from two distant continents traded information on (55 BUILD) techniques However, some (56 REVOLUTION) theories in recent years, based on the (57 DISCOVER) that the two cultures also share key myths, legends and beliefs, suggest that the (58 APPEAR) of pyramids on opposite sides of the world was no coincidence at all One (59 RESEARCH) working on this, Crystal David, said: “The (60 IMPORTANT) of finding out the truth here cannot be exaggerated It could change our whole understanding of the history of the world.” PART C READING I Read the passage of five paragraphs (A, B, C, D, and E) and the tasks that follow A Besides the earth’s oceans, glacier ice is the largest source of water on earth A glacier is a massive stream or sheet of ice that moves underneath itself under the influence of gravity Some glaciers travel down mountains or valleys, while others spread across a large expanse of land Heavily glaciated regions such as Greenland and Antarctica are called continental glaciers These two ice sheets encompass more than 95% of the earth’s glacial ice The Greenland ice sheet is almost 10,000 feet thick in some areas, and the weight of this glacier is so heavy that much of the region has been depressed below sea level Smaller glaciers that occur at higher elevations are called alpine or valley glaciers Another way of classifying glaciers is in terms of their internal temperature In temperate glaciers, the ice within the glacier is near its melting point Polar glaciers, in contrast, always maintain temperatures far below melting B The majority of the earth’s glaciers are located near the poles, though glaciers exist on all continents, including Africa and Oceania The reason glaciers are generally formed in high alpine regions is that they require cold temperature throughout the year, in these areas where there is little opportunity for summer ablation (loss of mass), snow changes to compacted firm and then crystallized ice During periods in which melting and evaporation exceed the amount of snowfall, glaciers will retreat rather than progress While glaciers rely heavily on snowfall, other climatic conditions including freezing rain, avalanches and wind, contribute to their growth One year of below average precipitation can stunt the growth of a glacier tremendously With the rare exception of surging glaciers, a common glacier flows about 10 inches per day in the summer and inches per day in the winter The fastest glacial surge on record occurred in 1953, when the Kutiah Glacier in Pakistan grew more than 12 kilometers in three months C The weight and pressure of ice accumulation causes glacier movement Glaciers move out from under themselves, via plastic deformation and basal slippage First, the internal flow of ice crystals begins to spread outward and downward from the thickened snow pack also known as the zone of accumulation Next, the ice along the ground surface begins to slip in the same direction Seasonal thawing at the base of the glacier helps to facilitate this slippage The middle of a glacier moves faster than the sides and bottom because there is no rock to cause friction The upper part of a KỲ THI CHỌN HSG CẤP TRƯỜNG 2020-2021 – ĐỀ THI MÔN TIẾNG ANH 11 Trang 3/5 glacier rides on the ice below As a glacier moves it carves out a U-shaped valley to a riverbed, but with much steeper walls and flatter bottom D Besides the extraordinary rivers of ice, glacial erosion creates other unique physical features in the landscape such as horns, fjords, hanging valleys, and cirques Most of these landforms not become visible until after glaciers have receded Many are created by moraines, which occur at the sides and front of a glacier Moraines are formed when material is picked up along the way and deposited in a new location When many alpine glaciers occur on the same mountain, these moraines can create a horn The matter horn, in the Swiss Alps is one of the most famous horns Fjords, which are very common in Norway, are coastal valleys that fill with ocean water during a glacial retreat Hanging valleys occur when two or more glacial valleys intersect at varying elevations It is common for waterfalls to connect the higher and lower hanging valleys, such as in Yosemite National Park A cirque is a large bowl-shaped valley that forms at the front of a glacier Cirques often have a lip on their down slope that is deep enough to hold small lakes when the ice melts away E Glacier movement and shape shifting typically occur over hundreds of years While presently about 10% of the earth land is covered with glaciers, it is believed that during the last Ice Age glaciers covered approximately 32% of the earth’s surface In the past century, most glaciers have been retreating rather flowing forward It is unknown whether this glacial activity is due to human impact or natural causes, but by studying glacier movement, and comparing climate and agricultural profiles over hundreds of years, glaciologists can begin to understand environmental issues such as global warming

Elme: Yes, it’s Elme Lewis That is E – L – M – E Clerk: Ok, and what’s your birthday please? Elme: I was born on the 14th February, 1982 (Question 02) Clerk: Woo, the Valentine’s Day! Where are you living now, Mr Elme? Elme: 17, Smithfield Drive (Question 03) Clerk: I know this place Do you have a day time telephone number?

Clerk: Yes, of course The interest depends on the sum in your account, i.e lower than £600, interest is 4.5% 600 and more, the interest goes up to 5.5% (Question 05) Elme: That sounds reasonable What advantages does the student account have? Clerk: We offer a £300 overdraft limit at a low interest (Question 06) Elme: I see Clerk: Now, can I have your passport and your student card?

Elme: En…I surf the internet almost every day, and I think it’s much more convenient for shopping by using the interest bank account So I would like to register for the internet bank account as well ( Question 10) Clerk: That’s OK then And one last thing, I need your signature and… Elme: Clerk: Section 2: Question 11 – 13 An now it’s straight into the Eco Hotspot for today’s programme We are in fact going to look at an intriguing trend in recent years in the world of eco-friendly developments There has been a constant stream of new “green products” coming into the market for the environmentally conscious (Question 11) A new departure, which I feel needs greater attention drawn to it, is the creasing interest in grass roofs Environmentalists sing the praises of grass roof s as interest in sustainable ecological building has led to the greening of the rooftops of residential and commercial buildings around the world (Question 12) And what does this type of roof consist of Instead of tiles which allow water to run off and create flash, the roof has a waterproof underlay which is laid over the roof deck This waterproof layer is then covered with layers for insulation and drainage Then on top of the insulation and drainage layer is added a final layer of soil or crushed stones for the plants and or grass to grow on (Question 13) The roof can be planted with wild owners to add colour and life to your rooftop Question 14-20 As for the benefits of grass roofs, in spring and in summer they are very pretty as flowers spring into bloom Moreover, in summer grass roofs are of particular benefit in cities because they keep and building cool (Question 14) by reflecting the sun’s rays In writer the grass roof insulate the building, helping to prevent heat loss The roofs require little maintenance (Question 15) and are better than any other roofing material They encourage biodiversity (Question 16) by attracting bees and birds and they absorb water run off which helps prevent flash flooding In winter, the brown soil is a bit more evident, which can look unattractive (Question 17), if the roofs are not tended carefully, but that is a price worth paying and I would say that they come highly recommended by those who have them If you compare grass roofs with tiles, they latter certainly look very tidy (Question 18), but at a price to the future of the planet The main drawbacks of tiles though are the water run-off and the absorption of heat (Question 19) from the sun’s rays in summer So if we are to save the planet from the ecological point of view, tiles not come recommended They only roof that I can think of which has similar ecological credentials to the grass roof is the thatched roof Thatched roofs are good insulators and very attractive, but very pricey (pricy) (Question 20) and not ideal for cities _HẾT KỲ THI CHỌN HSG CẤP TRƯỜNG 2020-2021 – HDC MÔN TIẾNG ANH 11 Trang 3/3 ...
